The Eagles have come to an agreement with offensive tackle Michael Bamiro, the team announced on Tuesday.

Bamiro, a 6-8, 344 lb offensive tackle from Stony Brook, was in high demand after a strange set of circumstances suddenly made him a free agent. Bamiro was planning to play this upcoming season at Stony Brook, but was ruled ineligible by the NCAA.

Bamiro did not know he was ineligible prior to the NFL Draft, which is why he went undrafted. He was also not eligible for the NFL Supplemental Draft, however, because he was technically eligible for the real draft.

That left Bamiro technically stuck in no-man's land, making him a free agent.

Bamiro's strange path now has landed him in Philadelphia, however, and the Eagles might have a steal on their hands. Bamiro would have likely been a mid-round pick had teams known they could have drafted him back in April. His combination of size and athletic ability was among some of the top offensive line prospects in the draft.

Given Chip Kelly's love for tall- and fast- players, the move makes sense for the Eagles. Bamiro will compete for a roster spot, and if he makes good on the potential so many teams saw in him, could very well make it.
